My favorite T213-2 card is this one of Mike Donlin, in which American Litho enhanced his card's caption..... "
.300 batter 7 years ".
"Turkey Mike" was the
Talk of the Town in New York city. He was indeed a "character", both on and off the field, and New Yorkers just loved him.
And, he was one of John McGraw's favorites.
Actually, Donlin batted over
.300 in 10 years of his 12-year career......good for a
.333 career BA. Plus, he had a career SLG avg. = .468 (equal
to Honus Wagner's career SLG avg.).
With a lifetime BA = .333, Mike Donlin would be in the HOF....if had he taken his BB career more seriously. Instead of vaudeville and the movies.
